Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027: Discussion
Ms Eibhl?n N? Mhunghaile:
I might add that although we do not yet know the detail of it, the new scheme Media Invest could be interesting in terms of equity investment. While it is not listed in the brochure, a company in west Cork known, Harvest Films, was supported under the previous programme for a film called “Silence” and it is indirectly involved in a project that was supported in the previous programme, namely, the adaptation of John McGahern's That They May Face The Rising Sun that is currently being filmed in Leitrim. A Kerry company, South Wind Blows, received the funding for that but it is in co-production with Harvest Films.
